The Officers, Executive Board and Staff of IBEW Local 21 would like to wish all of our members a safe and happy Memorial Day.

As we spend time with our friends and family this weekend we should remember why we celebrate the holiday; let’s also not forget those who have served, are currently serving, and those with family members who are in our military, especially those from our IBEW family. We thank all of them for protecting our freedoms.
